A PGD(2) receptor (DP) deficiency enhances tumor progression accompanied by abnormal vascular expansion. In tumors, angiogenic endothelial cells highly express DP receptor, and its deficiency accelerates vascular leakage and angiogenesis. Administration of a synthetic DP agonist, BW245C, markedly suppresses tumor growth as well as tumor hyperpermeability in WT mice, but not in DP-deficient mice. In a corneal angiogenesis assay and a modified Miles assay, host DP deficiency potentiates angiogenesis and vascular hyperpermeability under COX-2-active situation, whereas exogenous administration of BW245C strongly inhibits both angiogenic properties in WT mice. In an in vitro assay, BW245C does not affect endothelial migration and tube formation, processes that are necessary for angiogenesis; however, it strongly improves endothelial barrier function via an increase in intracellular cAMP production. PGD(2) / DP receptor is a newly identified regulator of tumor vascular permeability, indicating DP agonism can be exploited as a therapy for the treatment of cancer.

The invention provides a zwitterionic polymer with reductive responding antitumor activity. The zwitterionic polymer is an amphiphilic polymer formed by a disulfide bond-containing hydrophobic polycaprolactone and a hydrophilic polycarboxylic glycine betaine methacrylate. The amphiphilic polymer is self-assembled in water to form a micelle carrier of a core-shell structure, and through a physical embedding action, an antitumor drug is carried into a hydrophobic core of the nano micelle, so that the drug solubility is improved, the cycling time is prolonged, the vascular permeability synergistic effect is obtained, and the disulfide bond ruptures in a high reductive environment, so that the micelle structure is damaged so as to release adriamycin amycin, thereby further killing tumor cells; according to the polycarboxylic glycine betaine methacrylate monomer, a copolymer shows good biocompatibility, so that the toxicity of the antitumor drug is further reduced, and damage on normal tissues is reduced. An in-vitro simulative release experiment verifies that the zwitterionic polymer micelle as the drug carrier has a good release effect and is an antitumor active substance which has an application prospect.
